Jolie's Lips seems a lot more mellow lately. Way less trollish.

He actually makes pretty good posts sometimes. A lot of the hellions are playing nice lately.

Hellions are taking a breather.
Plus, there's nothing really going on, in general.

'Extremely offensive?'

'Harrassing?'

It was a joke. Very obviously so. He never threatened Lee physically. He never said 'imma hack your ****.'

There was nothing extreme about what he did. No one was cowering in fear or was incredibly offended. The only person that was actually dragged was MLD, and as I said, everyone drags MLD.

Ok soooo I commented on the thread about Katy Perry's Wide Awake finally leaving the Hot 100 which means the end of that era. The comment I placed was: 'Oh' and I got 1 WP because of it.
I commented Oh because I found the entire description weird.
He was like talking about the fact that a music era ends, when the last single leaves the Hot 100.
I never read something like that in my life so I was like Oh, lol.
The fact I have 9 WP's now and almost got banned because I said Oh is kinda disturbing to me
So I was wondering if the mods could take a look at it please?
Thank you!

A joke can be offensive and harassment, especially when no one's laughing.

Erm... everyone was laughing (if you're referring to the Lee situation). What did he say that was derogatory other than him CLEARLY NOT SERIOUSLY calling him racist?

Saying "oh" doesn't add anything to the topic, it doesn't show whether you're happy, sad, surprised. It's completely without meaning. That's why it was warned for off topic. If you have nothing to say, then you shouldn't post.

Why does it have be derogatory or "serious"? He was clearly pushing the limit with his name change and all the crap in HQ and later in Blogs. In the end the mods and admins agreed he went too far. That's all there is to it.

I've seen you doing that in several threads already for artists you don't particularly like to kinda downplay their achievement. If I was a mod I'd warn it for flamebait. Just saying

This isn't me trying to be funny I'm genuinely wondering... Do we get WPs for expressing our opinion for something if our opinion is negative?

[Brando]

So Shapes got permabanned?

What about that dude Brille? He was permabanned for making a dupe before the new rules were in place?
Why not permaban all his dupes and ban his main account for 3 months and let him come back under new rules?

So many ask for his return..

If it's about Britney then definitely.

No, only if the negative opinion is off topic, or if you go overboard with the shade.

Depends how you word it i suppose.

If the same was "true" about Madonna, you'd be permabanned by now.

I was wondering if I could ask a moderator to reopen my Best Of 2011 thread just for a few minutes so that I can retrieve the code that I used for the layout and not having to retype it again this year. Promise I won't bump it

Yup. Particularly if it deals with the site or the mods (as we're seeing).

[Jack. Bauer]

Is that "Best Of 2012" banner semi-permanent or is it just a notification that will vanish soon?

Because he didn't say anything MEAN. You and Lee don't particularly strike me as unintelligent people; I think it was clear that it was all just a joke. A silly, non harmful joke.

The permaban was a quick, rash decision, considering it took far longer for disciplinary action to be taken dealing with other members who have made ACTUAL hateful and cruel comments.

And the name change? Really?

People have been far messier on here and walked away without even a ban.

Hell... Kayla and Aaron threaten violence on members and they're both not permabanned.

Yes. If you load it with tons of "imo" and "not tryna shade", "sorry but", "I think". But generally less. Especially if it's true.

Also, why do we get warned for "throwing shade", it is different to flamebait. I mean there is a difference between "thowing shade" and dragging no?
